The purpose of this study is to investigate the generation and propagation of ground vibrations induced by railway traffic, more specifically in the case of urban vehicles. The complete vehicle—track—soil model is developed according to an uncoupled approach: the vehicle—track subsystem is first simulated so as to provide the ground forces which, in turn, are applied to the model of the soil. The vehicle—track model is built with the help of the home-made C++library
